It's also possible that both groups will be working toward a common goal at certain points in the game - the events will certainly be taking place in a chaotic world, so rapidly-shifting allegiances and temporary loyalties seem likely.Originally Posted by Mirage
So far, it's sounding fantastic. One of the main reasons I'll likely eventually own a PS3. The trailers and preview snippets are increasingly interesting, even if I'm a little wary of Raiden's high-heel exoskeleton and Vamp's new emo bangs.
The new stealth concepts sound really cool - like the garbage cans and the added aspect of olfactory stealth. Hopefully it'll be implemented in a way that makes the guards seem a little less stupid than in the first game.
"Huh? What was that smell?
...
Hmm. Just a trash can (that wasn't there ten seconds ago, but I'm daft so this doesn't worry me)."
The interactive girlie magazines seem to be taking the smut factor to a new level - maybe you can distract a guard more than usual by leaving a book open to a page that appeals to his particular preferences or fetishes? It could get really dodgy, but there's the potential for some creative gameplay there - say, you interrogate a guard and learn that a certain enemy prefers blondes/lingerie/men, then you leave the appropriate magazine lying around, and said guard makes a break for the nearest bathroom when he discovers it. Perverse stuff, but I definitely wouldn't be surprised. There's a certain amusing appeal to the idea of clearing an entire area of enemies just through the strategic use of filth.
